Cheney really belittled our forces by putting down the number of casualties we've had.

1. Yeah I couldn't quite wrap my mind around that
cheney said we AREN'T suffering 90% of the casualties because Iraqis are 50% and we are 50%????

Technically though we ARE suffering 90% of the casualties, MILITARILY.

2. How many of the Iraqi "alllies" are being killed by US bombs and bullets?
Cheney can't help it. He learned "creative" number juggling while running Halliburton.

Also, I don't remember any Iraqis joining the "coalition of the willing" who turned around and attacked their own nation.

3. it seems to me
that high casualties among our "Allies" in Iraq is probably not the best talking point for the administration to latch on to. Yeah, things are going just swell there.
